(one) leader principle Explanation: mozete nam dati malo vise konteksta? nacelo jednocelnistva kao npr. u vreme vladanja NS u Nemackoj?? ili u nekom drugom kontekstu??? "Nazi Germany cultivated the Führerprinzip (leader principle), and Hitler was generally known as just der Führer ("the Leader"). One of the Nazis' most-repeated political slogans was Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Führer' - 'One people, One state, One leader'." -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2007-02-11 21:21:41 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- The concept of the Führerprinzip came to prominence under the Nazi regime. However, it was not invented by the Nazis. There were essentially three sources for the Führerprinzip, the first being the Hegelian idea of the State. This was devised during the Napoleonic wars by the German philosopher Hegel and is best expressed by the summary of it put forward by Giovanni Gentile, the Italian philosopher and ideologist of Fascism. He said 'nothing above the State, nothing against the State, nothing outside the State.' 1)2) ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Führerprinzip -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2007-02-11 21:24:29 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ....

Autocracy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Redirected from Autocrat) Forms of government This series is part of the Politics series List of forms of government Anarchism Aristocracy Autocracy Communism Democracy Direct democracy Representative democracy Despotism Dictatorship Fascism Feudalism Kleptocracy Krytocracy Monarchy Absolute monarchy Constitutional monarchy Ochlocracy Oligarchy Plutocracy Republic Single-party state Thalassocracy Theocracy Tyranny Politics Portal · edit An autocracy is a form of government in which the political power is held by a single person. The term autocrat is derived from the Greek word autokratôr (lit. "self-ruler", "ruler of one's self"). Compare with oligarchy (rule by a minority, by a small group) and democracy (rule by the majority, by the people). Today it is usually seen as synonymous with despot, tyrant and/or dictator, though each of these terms originally had a separate and distinct meaning (see their respective articles). Autocracy is not synonymous with totalitarianism, as this concept was precisely forged to distinguish modern regimes that appeared in the 1930s from traditional dictatorships. It also isn't synonymous with military dictatorship, as these often take the form of "collective presidencies" (see the South-American juntas). However, an autocracy may be totalitarian or be a military dictatorship. But, it may also be a liberal autocracy governed by an "enlightened despot" who allows a significant amount of individual rights, such as freedom of speech and private property. The term monarchy differs in that it emphasizes the hereditary characteristic, though some Slavic monarchs (see tsar) traditionally included the title "autocrat" of part of their official styles. The actual power of the monarch may be limited. Historically, many monarchs ruled autocratically (see absolute monarchy) but eventually their power was diminished and dissolved with the introduction of constitutions giving the people the power to make decisions for themselves through elected bodies of government. The autocrat needs some kind of power structure to rule. Only a boss of a street gang or a barbarian chieftain can truly rule with only his personal charisma and his fighting skills. Most historical autocrats depended on their nobles, the military, the priesthood or others, who could turn against the ruler and depose or murder him. The true nature of a historical autocracy can be difficult to judge. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autocrat |
